2 problems no solution

[saivon]

My first problem is whenever I play sort of a medium load game such as starcraft 2 or Metro 2033 for example eventually if I alt tab after a while my computers response rate in different tabs in chrome is really slow if even lagish at some points and I am just curious what the problem might be



My second problem is my gmod ping at random ass times it jumps to like literally 900 then back down to 100 then sky rockets at random times it's really annoying please help.

1. Lack of RAM

2. Are you on WiFi?

1. Lack of RAM

2. Are you on WiFi?

1. But but I have 4 gb's but however it does say it's like un activated mode or something when I read the Bios when the pc starts up

2. Yes.

2. Yes.

1. 4GB is not enough for Chrome + those games (chrome uses ~1.5gb, windows ~1.5gb and those games ~2gb along with all the other stuff you have running)

2. That's why, WiFi is terribly unstable and you will get ping spikes when packets drop over WiFi. If it bothers you a lot consider going wired

1. So basically save up for 4gbs of more ram? and should I get the same type of ram in my pc? 

2. True wired is 100x better but with my old isp comcast I rarely almost never got huge ping increases so should I just conisder getting new a new isp?

1. yes and yes

2. wat. just go wired or move closer, your old ISP won't be 100x better than going wired.

1. cool

2. But i'm not saying that I was just saying I never really had problems with my old isp but how would I go wired ? I literally have no clue because the freaking router and modem is in my dad's office so what would I do I am so confuesed

There's an option if you can't get some LAN cables through the house though it will cost you maybe a good eighty dollars, which may not even be worth it.
LAN Adapters are available which work by connecting two of the units into your wall plugs - one in your dad's office and one where your PC is. If you set them up properly you could get a solid connection. That's what I've done though I'm not sure how long these things last, I've only been using it for two months.

Ok for the ram problem I need some good recommendations for at least 8 gbs Because that's really all I need


And for the LAN  Adapter sounds interesting show me some links or pics etc. on how they work and I might get one.
